> While it was news it was worth covering. Now, if you're a journalist and you're still covering it

I hold the opposite opinion. I think that covering it when everyone else was covering it would have been a waste of time because there is only limited information out there. Covering it 2 weeks or months later is much better and more information will have emerged and you can weave a narrative to tell the story better than some AI-written articles that just repeat the same 3 sentences from the Coast Guard.
